Best of List Overhauled

The paid survey industry in Australia is forever changing. We are constantly editing out list of survey sites to reflect the current performance of the sites themselves.

We have recently conducted a survey of our own to see what our members think about the sites and what they would rate them out of ten. We have taken this feedback into consideration in rearranging our list of the best sites.

Recently we had noticed that some of our lower performing sites had really lifted their game and as a results we made some of the biggest changes to our top pick list ever.

One of the companies that really surprised us was lightspeed research. Though once they were the leaders of the field they have for a long time been inactive. not any more they are truly back and better than ever.

What do you think is also now back on the board having recently sent me personally, multiple offers every day for the past couple of weeks.

I think that an important thing to note here is the constant changing in the survey sites performance. This is one of the main reasons that we have always recommended people sign up to multiple campaigns. This give you a much higher probabilities of being enrolled in the companies as they begin to perform well and also it allows one to always have a constant flow of opportunities flowing into their in-box.

I would strongly recommend that anyone who has not been over to the list of the best online surveys in a while do so now and sign up to any of the sites that we have listed in the top ten that you are not already a part of.

We are now listing upwards of 24 different companies just in our best of list! this is higher than ever before.

Stats out on average online survey earnings

Recently research was conducted on some of Americas largest online market research and online survey sites to discover the average earnings of an online survey taker, the results of this study were announced at the Nielsen online consumer panel conference last week.
The study broke down the statistics into categories based on the amount of time that the members participated and broke the earnings down into hourly rates.

The most relevant of the information presented on the findings was the hourly rate of members over the length of time they remained a participating member of the site. The figures from this section have been listed below.
(please note that these stats exclude the amount of time taken for members to sign up to the online survey programs. The dollar values are also converted into from US to Australian dollars).

1-4 Weeks $11/hour
4-12 Weeks $18/hour
12-52 Weeks $24/hour

What does this mean?
Well as can be clearly seen this proves what we here at online surveys australia have been saying for years! The longer you remain a member of the companies you sign up with the more regular you will receive offered to participate and the higher the pay rate and importance of those studies will be. This is just common sense really as the research companies prefer to have a reliable and trusted member before giving them the more lucrative and important studies.

The study also when on to say that the average pay rate of online survey takers is not 50% more than it was this time last year. This was due to a rising demand for online market research as oppose to traditional in house research. They state that the reasons for this are that the data collected online has become not only more popular and cost effective that the traditional methods but because the data collected is now considered more reliable.

Test and vote name change to Toluna

The very popular and successful partner Test & vote have recently undergone not only a name change but a complete overhaul.

With the research conducted by the test & vote group is was unanimously decided that it would undergo its transformation into a more new aged and funky design and feel. In review of the new site it is clear to me that they have done just that. The new logo’s, navigation and most importantly the survey taking system has improved dramatically.

What does this mean if you were previously a member of Test and vote?
There is no need to worry. The credit owed to all members of test and vote have been ported across to the new system. All of us here at online surveys australia have double checked and there has been no discrepancies in our fund at all.

If you were bored of working with test and vote in the past definitly give the new Toluna a test drive we have moved it up in the ranking quite considerably since the over haul. Go in and refresh/update your profile to get the juices flowing again you wont be disappointed.
